The agreement is a way for PostNord to adapt to a changing market and to create better conditions for developing stamp production, said Britt-Inger Hahne, head of PostNord Stamps.

During 2017, the production of the Danish and Swedish stamps will gradually be transferred to Cartor Security Printing, a global value printing house that specializes in stamps. The businesses are located in France and England, and the printing house delivers to postal operators and other customers worldwide.

Among Cartor Security Printing’s many stamp clients are Royal Mail and the Channel Islands, Austria, Portugal, and Singapore.
